Brisbane Plumbing & Gas Services
Licensed plumbing, gasfitting, drainage and maintenance for residential and commercial customers across greater Brisbane.
Plumbing
McFarland Plumbing Services delivers a full range of residential and commercial plumbing work across greater Brisbane. Whether you're building a new home, renovating an existing property, upgrading fixtures, or dealing with a repair that can't wait, our certified plumbers bring the skills and equipment to handle the job correctly the first time.
Our plumbing services cover everything from rough-in pipework on new builds and renovations to hot water system installations, tap replacements, toilet repairs, water pressure issues, and emergency callouts. We work with all common pipe materials and meet all Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) requirements on every job.
Gasfitting
Gas work requires a certified gasfitter — and Lorenzo McFarland holds the licences to do it safely. We install, maintain and repair gas appliances and systems for Brisbane homes and businesses, including gas cooking installations, continuous flow and storage hot water systems, gas heating, and bayonet outlet fitting.
All gasfitting work is pressure-tested and complies with AS/NZS 5601 Gas Installations and Queensland regulatory standards. We issue compliance certificates where required, giving you documented evidence that the work meets code — important for both safety and property transactions.
Drainage
Poor drainage causes property damage, flooding and ongoing maintenance headaches. McFarland Plumbing Services handles the full range of drainage work for renovations, new houses, commercial builds and civil projects across Brisbane. We design and install stormwater and sewer drainage systems that perform under Queensland's heavy rain events.
Our drainage services include blocked drain clearing, drain camera inspection, pipe relining, stormwater system installation, sewer connection, sump pump installation, and drainage compliance for council requirements. We work closely with builders and project managers to ensure drainage is done right before slabs are poured and walls go up.
Leak Detection
A hidden leak — whether in a water supply line or a gas system — can cause serious structural damage, health risks and inflated bills before it becomes visible. McFarland Plumbing Services uses systematic testing and inspection methods to accurately locate leaks in both gas and water systems without unnecessary excavation or damage to your property.
Once identified, we carry out the necessary repairs to fully resolve the issue. For gas leaks, our response is prompt: gas leaks pose an immediate safety risk and we treat them as urgent work. For water leaks, we'll explain the scope of repairs clearly before starting, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
Maintenance
Regular plumbing and gas maintenance keeps small problems from becoming costly emergencies. McFarland Plumbing Services offers maintenance services for Brisbane homeowners and commercial property managers, handling everything from gas leak investigations and hot water unit servicing to leaking taps, blocked drains, leaking roofs, stormwater drainage solutions, and smelly drain treatment.
We also issue water compliance certificates for property sales, rental compliance, and insurance requirements. If you manage a rental property or commercial building with ongoing plumbing needs, ask us about a maintenance schedule — a proactive approach that keeps your property compliant and your tenants comfortable.
Backflow Valve Testing
In Queensland, backflow prevention devices must be tested at least once a year, with no more than twelve months between tests. Backflow prevention is a critical safeguard that stops contaminated water from flowing back into the public drinking water supply — protecting your property, your neighbours, and Brisbane's water network.
Testing must be carried out by a fully licensed and backflow-certified plumber. Lorenzo McFarland holds the required backflow certification and provides testing with full documentation submitted to your local council or water authority as required. We'll remind you when your next annual test is due and handle the paperwork so you stay compliant without the admin burden.
